Dragons vs Leinster daytrip - Sunday 27/3
Been watching flight prices for this, was hoping they would drop a bit but just incase they don't went ahead and booked. KO is 2.30pm so the morning flight in and return that evening is perfect.
€36 for the flights all in with Ryanair to Bristol . . . will probably hire a car (45 min drive) but the train is also an option (from £15 return each and the journey is about 80 mins each way).

Is that meant to be 30 mins? Did the trip couple of seasons ago and thought we took a commuter type train, don't remember it taking that long but I could have nodded off for whilesheepshagger wrote:Been watching flight prices for this, was hoping they would drop a bit but just incase they don't went ahead and booked.

I'll be joining you all for this one (another ground to tick off the list). Not too shabby at €50 either
The sport that unites Catholic, Protestant and dissenter has had its day of days. Pity anybody who can't enjoy it. Some day.

My advice. Stay in Bath and get the train up for the game and straight back afterwards.

Re: Dragons vs Leinster daytrip - Sunday 27/3
My advice is: Never do a day trip for a rugby match. Not worth travelling just to come straight back.Hickiefan wrote:Except it's a day trip Johnjohng wrote:My advice. Stay in Bath and get the train up for the game and straight back afterwards.

Doing a couple of same dayers preserves moolah allowing more trips in these recessionary times

Notification received from Ryanair of a change in flight time on the return leg, was leaving Bristol at 9.20pm now departs at 7.55pm... nothing too major (infact is better as get home a few hours earlier) shouldnt affect getting to/from the airport & Newport.
KO is 2.30pm
